Critique my detail process

Hi all below is my usual detailing process.  Please critique it.  I'm a long time Zaino user and am looking for something with the same durability but takes less time to do.


 


1. wash zaino wash


2. clay bar (I will be using nanoscrub soon, just ordered it)


3. Z-AIO (using porter cable)


4. Z-5


5. Z-2 + zfx


6. Z-CS


 


Comes out pretty amazing but takes a full day.


 


Someone told me to use nanoscrub with nanoshock and that's it.  I can't imagine it being as durable as the above steps.


 


Thanks guys

You could try replacing steps 4-6 with one Last Step Product ("LSP").  E.g., I usually just top my ZAIO (or some finishing polish if I use that instead) with FK1000P, adding another coat of the FK after the next wash.  Having used a scad of different LSPs, I can't imagine anything (including your current Zaino regimen) providing better durability or protection than that.


 


But if you like the signature look for Zaino, you might find other products just don't do it for you; Zaino is one of the few LSPs that looks so unique that I can often spot it in real-world condtions.


 


And just FWIW, I think that getting all that done in one day is pretty good!
